Chapter 42: Seeing Through
Ru'er thought that she had slipped back from Guanhai Pavilion without knowing it, but the facts tell us that if people don't know, they can't do anything unless they don't know.
When Yufu returned to Yihuaxuan from Ru'er, she paid close attention to her every move.
After seeing her move to break away from Yurong, Yufu frowned. It wasn't until she saw her open the lid of the medicine jar that Chu Xuan specially used to boil medicine that Yufu's eyes widened. It turns out that Ru'er didn't betray her master at all, she came to harm her master!
Yufu covered her mouth and watched Ru'er's next series of actions—pulling out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve and pouring the contents into the boiling medicine jar. Then he stirred the medicine in the medicine jar with the chopsticks resting next to him, and finally tiptoed out with the porcelain bottle.
After Ru'er went out, Yufu walked to the medicine jar and lifted the lid to look at the boiling Chinese medicine. This jar of Chinese medicine looks no different from the average one, after all, all Chinese medicine is dark brown.
Yiruer's familiar behavior shows that this is not the first time she has been drugged. No wonder the master's body suddenly collapsed, but he never found the cause! I didn't expect the problem to be here.
Fortunately, the master usually doesn't drink much medicine, and thinks it's bitter and astringent. I have always refused to drink the medicine on the grounds that even the imperial doctor has not found the cause of the disease, so what is the use of the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor. also blamed himself, thinking that this medicine was good for the master, and he kept persuading the master to drink the medicine with Yurong, and the master only occasionally drank a little.
Yufu hurriedly brought the medicine jar in, but her hand was so hot that she took a cloth towel and walked quickly to the hall with the medicine jar boiling inside.
Chu Xuan has been sleeping more and more drowsy recently, and he has just come in at this time, and he has a bitter face when he sees Yufu coming in with a medicine jar.
"Do you have to drink medicine again?" Chu Xuan stared at the medicine jar with a reluctant expression.
If it was in normal times, Yufu would have persuaded Chu Xuan to be obedient and drink medicine obediently.
"Master, don't drink medicine today." Yufu's face was solemn.
"Really!?" Chu Xuan was happy all of a sudden, but looking at Yufu's serious appearance, he subconsciously felt that there was nothing good.
"What's wrong?" Chu Xuan sat up from the couch.
"Just now, the slave maid followed Ru'er to find out...... She went to the Sea Pavilion. The more Yufu thought about it, the more angry she became.
Sea Pavilion? Chu Xuan raised her eyebrows, this Caiyan is really bold, even Yi Huaxuan dares to interfere.
"Then, the slave maid saw Ru'er go back to Yihuaxuan and add something I don't know what it was to the master's medicine." Yufu placed the medicine jar in her hand on the wooden table.
"What!?"
If she knew that Ru'er was Zhang Cainu's person, she might not be so angry, after all, who didn't have someone else in the palace, Chu Xuan deserved to panic. But now this matter is actually related to his own net worth and life, which is not something that can be solved by diaphragm.
"I went to ask Imperial Doctor Zou to come, and I said that the owner was a little uncomfortable." Chu Xuan was furious and didn't forget to arrange it clearly, "By the way, remember to take out the medicine jar and empty bowl, and leave another bowl of medicine in the hall and wait for Imperial Doctor Zou to come and see which gourd sells the medicine!" ”
If it's really Ru'er's medicine, since you're unkind, don't blame me for being unjust! Chu Xuan has never been a good master, and although she hasn't played any tricks since entering the palace, it doesn't mean that she won't. If you can survive in the palace, how can you have no scheming.
Imperial Doctor Zou ran behind Yufu with a medicine box, Yufu said that Chu Gui was unwell, so he was in a hurry to pull him over, and his old bones were about to run away.
Just entered Yihuaxuan and took a few breaths, but found that this Chu nobleman was not sitting on the soft couch with a good uprightness? Where is the slightest bit uncomfortable.
Chu Xuan looked calm: "Yufu, go and bring a cup of tea to Imperial Doctor Zou to take a breath."
Imperial Physician Zou looked sincerely frightened: "Don't bother Miss Yufu, I don't know where Guiren Chu is uncomfortable."
"The owner is uncomfortable." Chu Xuan sneered, "I should be very good in my heart." ”
Imperial Physician Zou was dumbfounded when he heard this, could it be that he had offended this master somewhere.
Unexpectedly, Chu Xuan pointed to a bowl of medicine on the wooden table beside him: "There is Imperial Doctor Lao Zou to take a look at this bowl of medicine."
Hearing this, Imperial Doctor Zou breathed a sigh of relief, but in a blink of an eye, his right eyelid jumped inexplicably when he saw the medicine on the case, but he was still ordered to take the bowl of medicine that still had residual warmth and checked it in.
Isn't this the medicine he prescribed? Could it be that there will be some problems? Wrong! There seems to be a few more flavors of medicine in it.
Imperial Physician Zou's eyes widened, and he subconsciously raised his head to look at Chu Xuan. At this time, Chu Xuan also looked at Imperial Physician Zou with a serious face, and when he saw Imperial Physician Zou raise his head: "Imperial Physician Zou, is there something wrong with this medicine?"
Imperial Doctor Zou said thoughtfully: "This medicine ...... I'm afraid it was moved by someone with a heart. ”
"Someone with a heart?" Chu Xuan tugged at the corners of his mouth.
Chu Xuan looked at Imperial Physician Zou with a flat face, but what he said made him very shocked: "Imperial Physician Zou remembers what he said, don't say it when the time comes." After all, the master has a good memory, even if he is sick. ”
Imperial Doctor Zou shivered, looked at the woman in front of him who was not knowing how many years younger than him, and felt a chill spreading from his bones.
It's not that Chu Xuan is careful, but he has to guard against it. In case someone threatens or bribes Imperial Doctor Zou, he will not even have a place to cry at that time.
"Yufu, go and ask Yurong to find a few powerful little eunuchs to tie up Ru'er." After Chu Xuan finished warning Imperial Doctor Zou, he turned his head and instructed Yufu.
Imperial Physician Zou looked at Chu Xuan and knew that someone wanted to harm her, but instead handled things in an orderly manner.
She handled a series of things, but she was still in the mood to joke with Imperial Doctor Zou: "Imperial Doctor Zou, do you think the harem concubines know that the master was not killed, what will happen behind their backs?"
Hearing such a sharp question, Doctor Zou was in a cold sweat on his forehead, and he couldn't say anything for a long time. Please, he just wanted to retire, and he was actually swept in like this, it seems that he should consider returning to his hometown and retiring early.
Chu Xuan looked at him embarrassed and couldn't say a word, and chuckled: "It's a pity, the master is not as good as they want, and his life is hard."
"Yes, yes......" Imperial Physician Zou listened to Chu Xuan's words and nodded vigorously. This master's words really cost him a long time.
After that, Chu Xuan caught a glimpse of Yufu walking in and telling her that she was ready.
The smile on Chu Xuan's lips deepened: "Let's go, Imperial Doctor Zou." It seems that we have to fight this battle in Fengluan Palace. ”
Chu Xuan walked out of the hall with regular steps, looked at Ru'er, who was tied to one side and kneeling, saw her begging for mercy, and looked up at the rare cool weather today, and the corners of her lips hooked slightly: "It's really a good weather."
Yufu and Imperial Doctor Zou were silent.
